Shops, apps and platforms for retail and e-commerce

In retail, the connection between sales channel and merchandise management is decisive. If prices, stock levels and delivery times are correct in shop and app, customers buy. We develop shops, apps and specialist platforms that draw their data directly from ERP, PIM and payment systems.

Starting point

Retailers sell via shop, app and branch to private and business customers

Retailers sell via branches, shop, app and marketplaces, to private and business customers alike. Every channel needs the same product data, prices and stock levels.

Where interfaces are missing, the result is duplicate data maintenance, incorrect availability and orders that have to be reworked by hand. And every new function becomes a project because it has to be built in several systems.

What we often encounter

  1. Shop, app and branch show different prices or stock levels.
  2. Product data is maintained in several systems.
  3. The app is only maintained on a makeshift basis.
  4. The shop version is outdated and holds back new features.
